Re: VMware-4.5 workstation under Debian/testing?




I've had no problem using the internal networking (shared folders, basically) between the host Debian Sid Kernel 2.4.2X and Windows XP... works fine :)

Also, the NAT setup between the Guest OS and Debian works fine (I can talk out from my Guest OS over my Debian connection(s) ).

I am interested in running vmware-4.5 work-station under debian/testing

and a tar.gz that contains files for RH/Mandralke/SuSe. Is any one
running it suceesfully under debian?



I am running it under debian (unstable) with kernel 2.4 (various
versions). Don't know about kernel 2.6, haven't tried yet.

Its running OK except for some issues with usb (usually not detecting
properly when a device has been connected), and I haven't managed to
connect from debian to the guest OS over the virtual network (haven't
tried very hard), connecting from the guest OS to debian or the
Internet works fine.

I am running winXP pro as the guest.

I installed using the tar.gz package.
